Hotels near Jose Barcelo, Playa de Palma

Our expectations were met. Super nice staff. Wifi surprisingly also very good. The food was delicious. Fish and the like was freshly fried for one. We were very satisfied and would like to come again. If you want to go to the Ballermann and want to party, I don't recommend the hotel. It's an hour's walk to get there, which is very long. I posted a few examples: the view from a courtyard view, example food (what we got/prepared) some of it is dinner, others from breakfast. I also took a picture of the aisle with me. On a picture you can also see where you could get something to eat, among other things, but there were other options.

Great hotel, loads of facilities, great location (I think 5-10 min from airport by car/taxi and same distance walking to the beach). Tbh I normally dont do reviews, not bads not good reviews, I am too lazy for that lol, but this hotel really deserves a good review. I went on my own and just 4 nights so I was a little bit hesitant because I didnt want to feel awkward so I looked for an hotel that has everything and they had it, from the staff that all of them were so friendly and helpful (I felt even spoiled), the location, the food ( buffets for breakfast and dinner with lots of variety and different themes of food very night for dinner), the facilities (2 jacuzzi, sauna, 3 pools) and the entertainment were excellent, I definitely will go again but with family and I will stay at least for a week

A better hotel for half a month, clean and hygienic ~ Close to the airport, good English at the front desk, and the bus is actually very convenient ~ It would be better to book a room with full sea view ... Breakfast is a bit average ...

A good four stars. Hotel close to the airport (taxi 14 euros, no ubers in Mallorca). I was lucky enough to have a terrace room (first floor room) where you walk from your balcony directly onto the terrace overlooking the pool. I reckon these rooms are best unless you're obsessed with a sea view in which case go above 5th floor. Hotel breakfast is good- lots of choice. Also an inexpensive cafe / bar on poolside with very friendly staff. The hotel was peaceful when we were there- slept well and beds pretty comfortable. Very very close to the beach- 3 mins walk - and then you're on the beachfront which has an almost unlimited abundance of restaurants, cafes and bars. One cautionary note about the restaurants nearby - be careful with the reviews many look to be inflated / fake so choose carefully. Lots of mini-supermarkets - the best within 5 mins walk is carrefour express.

supper big and good with delicious breakfast and kind staff, they can call the taxi for you and there is a bus stop right at the gate of the hotel, it’s really convenient. We really had a good time at the hotel and it’s near the airport only cost 7mins so we can save time there.

NOT BAD HOTEL, RIGHT IN THE MOVIDA AREA. IT DOES NOT HAVE SPACE TO SIT OUT AND BE OUTSIDE FOR A LITTLE BIT. IN THE POOL AREA THERE ARE SOFAS AND ARMCHAIRS, BUT INEXPLAINABLELY THEY CLOSE EVERYTHING IN THE EVENING. THEY ASK FOR 100 EUROS DEPOSIT PER PERSON FOR ANY DAMAGE. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED. IT'S NOT A 4 STAR. BREAKFAST AND DINNER GOOD BUT LITTLE VARIETY. CHARGING FOR WATER AT DINNER I FIND UNADEQUATE FOR A 4 STAR. CLEANLINESS IN THE ROOM GOOD. STAFF SOME KIND, OTHERS LESS. PRACTICALLY MORE A 3 STARS THAT 4.

I have nothing to say about the hotel. The service facilities and environment are very good. The rooms are large and very clean. The balcony is very spacious and you can see the sea. The indoor spa is also great. Breakfast and dinner are all buffet with many kinds. If you have the chance to come to Mallorca again Ka will stay here again!

We found the hotel, rooms and dining were all very good. The staff were very helpful and eager to please, especially the very attentive security guard who looked after our bikes in the car park. You can catch a direct bus to Palma from right outside the hotel. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the beach, bars and restaurants. The only caveat I would have is make sure this hotel is for you. This is, to an extent, a party resort and the hotel reflects this. The guests were predominantly groups of single males, of all ages , with the odd hen party. There was a lot of late night/early morning noise and drunken singing and the bar was often raucous although we never saw any loutish or aggressive behaviour. Just people having a very good time. If you are looking for a relaxing family holiday or romantic getaway I would recommend you consider other hotels.

The hotel was perfect - an older building but nicely reconstructed in a modern style: gym, 3 pools, nice pool bar. Everything nice and stylish - and clean. Excellent location - 5 min walking from the beach, restaurants, bars, shops, promenade. And what is important - 5 from the bus stop to the city center, the airport (public transport - Palma de Mallorca, a ticket costs 2 EUR - and you can get anywhere in Palma, the ticket is valid unless you get off the bus). The majority of the guests were young people. In some reviews, guests complain about other guests being noisy (football fans, young boys/girls weekend parties) - partially yes - but you are in Mallorca and on S Arenal beach - so you must be prepared for it. It is a party area on the island. I was there with two teenage sons and they loved it there. The room was nice and clean, but smaller than we expected. No wardrobes - just open racks and hangers. But no problem for us. (What we really did not like were the big mattresses thrown under the sofa bed all our stay. We stayed 3 persons in 2-bed + 1 sofa bed room - so one of us slept on the sofa bed. As they built a bed from the sofa - the huge unused mattresses (bigger than the frame of the bed) were thrown under the bed and the mattresses were sticking out from under the bed. Not only it was ugly looking but it was also dangerous - because one could easily trip over them at night. We liked the restaurant very much, a very nice selection of food at breakfast as well as at dinner. 5 of 7 days there were thematic dinners (Asian, Italian...) which was perfect. What was surprising for us- was we had to pay for ALL our drinks at dinner even though we had half-board at the hotel, even for drinking water. It might be standard for Mallorca, but we never experienced anything like this before. To sum up - if we forget those 2-3 small difficulties - we loved there everything. It was a very good hotel and I can recommend it to everybody.
